Let's Hike - Miracles Momma Designs

Hi everyone!  Today I wanted to share with you a project I did for Heather's sketch DT, MMD.  These are photos from our recent trip to Hawaii.  We spent a day hiking and checking out waterfalls.  The weather was somewhat iffy that day, making the hiking a fairly unattractive activity that day so we had many of the falls to ourselves.  hee hee

These are some ancient Scenic Route papers.  I am forever trying to clean out the stash.

Well, house guests this week.  Lots of school to do.  Gotta run.

Hugs,

Nancy

Time Flies

You know that old saying....Time flies when you are having fun.  I am not sure how much fun I have been having, but I can't believe I haven't had a chance to sit down and blog in almost a week.  sigh

I do have projects in the works tho!  Lovely things to share.  Let's start with a couple of layouts.....

I have been taking great joys these days in using older supplies.  Here I have more Scenic Route Paper, which I mixed with some brand new Prima leaves, an older Prima flower and a Maya Road rosette.   The layout is simple, but I was happy with it.  You wouldn't believe how much chipboard I have stashed away, just waiting to be used.  Funny the way we forget about these things once they are packed up.  This is based on a sketch from Sketchy Thursdays.

Some photos from Skagway, Alaska.  We saw some beautiful scenery and were extremely grateful for the extra layers that were provided for us on the excursion.

And the Halloween photos just keep coming.....Here is Ainsley and a few friends at a Halloween party just a month or so ago.  The girls all had a great time and their costumes were so fun.  I swear tho....I am never going to finish scrapping Halloween.  hee hee  Lots of fun, older, Imaginesce papers here....with a few of the coordinating embellishments.  And you know I could resist throwing in a bit of Prima, a flower and some bling.  hee hee

I also added in a bit of twine from The Twinery.  I am just loving playing with twine these days.

Well, I have tons of things to do...so for now....

Hugs.

More Pumpkins

I am sure you can't possibly be tired of looking at photos from the pumpkin patch yet?  lol  Oh the joys of trying to complete multiple albums.  I am sure each of my children will simply be thrilled to move out someday with an entire bookcase of scrapbook albums devoted to their lives.  lol

I have this one layout tho, and one photo still to scrap...so I promise it will all be over soon.  hee hee

Here are my three little darlings back in 2004 (oh, how I wish my older photos were digital).  And look...I even have Phil in this one.  hee hee

 And here they are just a week ago.

Scenic Route papers and chipboard alpha, Prima flowers, felt vine, butterflies, American Crafts felt embellishments, WeR tag, EK Success punch, Tim Holtz distress inks

Again, used my stash of older papers, this time from Scenic Route.  I have tons of older Halloween papers and as much as I love the new patterns and colors....I really should use some of these up!  I added in some Prima flowers and butterflies, some felt embellishments from American Crafts, a tag from WeR and more of those super fun corrugated alphas from Jillybean soup!

Hope you are having a great weekend!

Hugs.

More Pumpkins

So, the other day I told you how much my children love going to the pumpkin patch every year.  Here are a few more pages from this years trip and a few of the older photos from 2004.

Ainsley was just a baby in 2004, she had just turned 3.  sigh....how time flies. 

Now she is so grown up.  We just had her hair cut for donation and she is still getting used to her shorter 'do.

Fancy Pants True, American Crafts and Pink Paislee alphas, Petaloo floral vine, Prima flowers, Basic Grey epoxies, EK Success Punch, Michaels butterfly

 More older Fancy Pants paper here.  This time from the True collection.

And here is Mackenzie then.....

And here she is now!  Yep, she is taller than me.  Just barely, but she is and she likes to make sure everyone knows it!  lol

Scenic Route papers, chipboard, alpha, Prima flowers

These are lovely "vintage" Scenic Route papers.  sigh....Sometimes I really miss this company, such great bold colors and patterns.  I added in a few newer Prima flowers to update the look a bit.

I will leave you today with this lovely photo of my two little darlings in the pumpkin queen chair.  You can compare it to the one in the above layout.  hee hee

Hugs.

Today is Monday

Hey Everyone,

Hope you all had a great weekend.  Mine was good with plenty of time with family and a bit to play with paper.  hee hee

Today I have another installment of Menu Monday.  Last week, it was hot!  So stinking hot!  Lots of salad....let's get started.

Monday was burrito bowls

Tuesday we had a mexican cobb salad.  One of my faves!

Wednesday was something brand new for me.....Hungarian Beef Stew.  I enjoyed it, not sure about the children tho.  Ainsley thought it was a bit spicy.

 Thursday we had herb and citrus grilled chicken tacos...which I turned into a salad.

Friday the boys were out of town, so the girls and I had cheese, crackers and some veg for dinner...nothing exciting there, definitely nothing to show.

So, since I don't have much to share in the way of menus...How about I share a layout?

Scenic Route papers, 3tailscraft chipboard,  Maya Road, Prima flowers, AC felt and alphabet, Martha Stewart and EK punches.

I made this using some old, old, old Scenic Route papers and some super cute chippie I got from 3tailscraft. There is a challenge every month on scrapbook.com to use 3tailscraft chippies and I always have the best time playing.  This month we had to emboss.  I started with a dry emboss, but didn't really get the look I wanted, so I did a heat emboss.

Thanks for dropping by.

Hugs.
